[video] How I prepare to a hypnosis session [behind the scenes]

In this video I am going thru preparation to a session focused on: healing of the heart, memories of abandonment and control, forgiveness, opening to receive and to give… From the moment the client fills out the confidential form online, and we get on the phone for a quick consult, feel connected to their spirit […]

Find or Create Your Sacred Space

In Phoenix / Paradise Valley, we have a wonderful, spiritual retreat. It consists of the sacral buildings; the church, chapels, dorms, but it also has a huge, enclosed, desert area. While walking the paths, day or night, you can come upon benches hidden in the trees, a labyrinth, gazebos, sculptures, and bunnies hopping here and […]

Dead end thoughts: “I don’t want to feel deprived”

Are you stopping yourself from committing to your weight loss process, because you don’t want to feel deprived? I call it a “dead end thought.” You think “I don’t want to feel deprived” and it ends here. An obstacle have been thrown on your path, by your own mind. You don’t question it. If you […]

When you gained some weight back…

$me in san fracisco$

Everything was going so well. You were losing it: pound after pound… week after week. You got near your ideal weight. And then. You sort-of-fell-off-the-wagon. There was so much going on. Stress? You ate the bad food. There was nothing going on. Boredom. So you ate the bad food. And one day you weigh yourself […]

“I crave it, so my body needs it!” Yes?…uhm.nope.

In hypnosis for weight loss sometimes we deal with addictions to unhealthy foods that make weight loss impossible. We get used to food. But we get addicted to addictive foods, created for the purpose of making us buy more (and making us fat) It is possible that you crave something that your body REALLY NEEDS. […]

When the student is ready and the master… runs away

What happens when the student is ready, but greedy? Obsessed with getting his hands on the secret? The Master, though generous, cannot give it away. Or it would be a violation. “Throwing pearls in front of the swine.” The demanding energy of the student leaves the Master no choice. But to withhold. Are you that […]

A THOUGHT that will nip in the bud overspending and overeating

Many years ago I started using this THOUGHT, when I tried to change my shopping habits. And then sugar eating habits. As a Capricorn, I love material things, I think they can make us happy, they can bring joy (…until they don’t). So this THOUGHT doesn’t imply we never buy anything again! But a little […]

What’s the source of your personal power?

What is personal power? To have it means to me: To be a Master of my Energy. To stand my ground. To have the ability to choose To feel I have an inner foundation I can rely on. To know what’s at that foundation. To take action. To not be swayed left and right. […]

Weight Loss Kindness

Self-care doesn’t come natural. Self-kindness needs to be learned. By default we use self-judgement. Even after listening to Pema Chodron for hours, “self-kindness” still sounds too soft to me. I don’t associate it with achieving goals… People who know me can say how hard I can be on myself – and maybe you know from […]

Strong will not necessary [weight loss wellness]

How many times did you decide not to order the french fries, or the dessert, and the drinks, and you end up having it all? How often do you wonder why in the world did you eat so much? AGAIN? You may feel disappointed with yourself, disappointed with the lack of having a strong will. […]

Weight Loss Empowerment

Empowerment: a sense of being in control. Having proof that our efforts matter and create change. Also: unconditional acceptance of yourself. Having your own back. When you are unhappy with your body, you may imagine that when you finally lose all the excess weight – you will feel empowered and better about yourself. That may […]

How to end emotional eating?

One of the ways of winning with emotional eating [EE] is to take the emotions out of eating. Separate the two. Like a pea from a pod… How do we do it? Here are two examples from my own life. And just be aware – I’m not doing it every time I want to eat. […]

What happens when You End Emotional Eating

What’s emotional eating [EE]? Eating when you are not physically hungry; to feel calm when anxious, entertained when bored, and comforted when lonely. And what’s wrong with that? I think you would agree – nobody wants to stop EE because who wants discomfort and denying themselves this instant heavenly sensation that comfort food can give. […]
